Ley lines are lines of energy that many monuments like Stonehenge have been built on. People are still researching this, but not much is known. It may be related to the Earth's magnetic field.

Has there ever been a bad tornado in the UK?

Yes. The worst tornado to have hit the UK in modern times was a T5 (equivalent to a strong F2) which hit Birmingham in July of 2005, costing £40 million (about $70 million US).

Why does the UK get very light earthquakes?

There are very few regions of the world that are aseismic. Even Antarctica has them. The cause of earthquakes include plate tectonics, volcanic activity, elevation of land due to isostasy after removal if ice sheets, and just adjustments of the geological strata. In other words there is no good reason why GB should not have them. Many other countries would like to think they are free from natural disasters as well.
